XiaoRulez Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 well, i got this file db_update.php normal execution time for the current database size is about just over 5 minutes. all it does is it updates a few variables for each user.The execution timeout for the new another server i'm working on is only 120 seconds. Is there a way for me to change the execution time within the script? Because it also decides wether or not to update based on a few things. i can't have it allowing a 10 minute execution for all files.

micah1701 Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 you should be able to use ini_set() to temporarily override the php.ini settings.check out the manual page on it: http://us3.php.net/ini_setsee if that helps.

XiaoRulez Posted July 10, 2006 Author Share Posted July 10, 2006 kool, thanks. ;DKinda off the php topic:I was told about, by someone, that i might be able to set a Cron job for the updates... I'm using CPanel, how might i do this?eg, all rows in table 'users' change the value of all 'credit' +1 if 'credit' isn't over 300 Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/14001-execution-time-can-i-make-exeption-without-phpini/#findComment-55416 Share on other sites More sharing options...
micah1701 Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 there is a tutorial here at phpfreaks.com for setting up cron jobscheck out:http://www.phpfreaks.com/tutorials/28/0.phpI don't use cPanel, so i'm not sure if it has a GUI for this, but I know that my host (using sphera) doesn't.it has to be done through the command lins (using a SSH client like PuTTy)The tutorial link above was pretty helpful, but not exactily compatible with my host, so I had to do some research and tweak it a bit. Give it a try and post any questions you still have.
